PICS MOTOR

Completely redesigned in 2009, the 2012 Harley-Davidson FXDB Dyna Street Bob goes straight back to the minimalist roots of the bobber scene. Stripped down to the bare essentials, the key word here is “pure” with no parts that aren’t absolutely necessary. Since its introduction, this attitude-laden motorcycle has taken the custom world by storm with mini ape-hanger handlebar, Fat Bob® fuel tank, solo seat, mid-mounted foot controls and a big, black Twin Cam 96™ engine.
